Penman – further models: collective page for Cargo trailers outside the named ranges, GVM and Lightweight types, unladen weight 600 to 750 kg, gross weight 1,750 kg, length 2.80 to 2.88 m
This page gathers the Cargo trailers from Penman that the register could not assign to a named range. The model names use British trade abbreviations: GVM stands for Gross Vehicle Mass, LW for Lightweight, as confirmed by the spelled-out Lightweight GS Cargo variants in the same model list; TLR marks the trailer itself, while 2WD and WHD refer to the axle and wheel configuration; the figure 1.13T appears in several of the type names.

The register lists here 14 versions with unladen weights from 600 to 750 kg, a gross weight of 1,750 kg, lengths from 2,800 to 2,880 mm and widths from 1,770 to 1,800 mm.
The narrow spread of dimensions points to a very uniform range within class O2: light Cargo trailers for the British market, used for garden waste, building materials or small-scale haulage behind a car. Penman is known in British trailer building mainly for sturdy utility and livestock trailers, with the Cargo range covering the lighter general-purpose segment.
Buying one of these compact Cargo trailers used, the condition of the galvanised frame matters most, since corrosion on utility trailers this size usually shows first on the cross members and mudguard brackets. Also check the overrun brake or unbraked setup, the condition of the drawbar and jockey wheel, the side panels for distortion, and the lighting to British or ECE standard. Axle and brake parts on British-built trailers usually match Alko or Knott standards, which makes servicing straightforward.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
